Sick of killing stock injectors for NO GOOD REASON. Details inside and please recommend a drop in replacement that wont break.

You stated in your original post how the car was running great for a period of 10 months until you added the remainder of the e85 treatment. I still cant comprehend why anyone would add that additive to a car thats not tuned on e85 even if it doesn't have a warning label stating not to use on unleaded cars. Why didnt you just buy the nulon unleaded fuel treatment? It's almost like running diesel fuel in an unleaded car (probably a bit of an extreme example but you get the idea). 

Yes, I think, despite apparent clear link to the fuel treatment, the electrical death of injectors cannot be attributed to the liquid flowing inside them.  The common cause of killing multiple sets of injectors on the same car has to be on the electrical side.

Mine is an S2 so no dropping resistor on the back of the coil cover .

I would think that electrical issues are a definite possibility here . Can you check that resistor or find some mod to remove it from the equation ?

Just a thought cheers A .

    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
    • Sounds like a misfire. Check fuel pressure and don't even think about going into boost while it's like this unless you enjoy engine rebuilds.
